World Travel Awards Nominee 2024
Spread evenly, in a long line along the N'waswitsontso River, are secluded family cottages. Part of Talamati is also a private facility, only allowing residents access to the camp. Talamati Bushveld Camp is within close proximity to a larger rest camp, with guests being allowed the use of the larger camp's amenities and shops. The Xitsonga word Talamati translates as 'lots of water, ironic when considering the river is actually mostly dry. The clay soil in the riverbed traps reservoirs of underground water, and tributaries flowing into the lush vegetation. The camp itself is located in an open valley, maximising game viewing opportunities for both grazers and their ever-present predators.
• Cottages have one-bedroom with 2 single beds and a double sleeper couch in the lounge area. The cottages has a bathroom, kitchen and ceiling fan. The open verandah has a seating area.
• Guest cottages are made up of two-bedrooms, including a double sleeper couch in the lounge area. Some cottages have multiple bathrooms and ceiling fans. The kitchen has a gas stove, refrigerator, sink, cooking utensils, crockery and cutlery. Not all the cottages have a verandah.
Talamati Camp offers adventure in the form of safari game drives, all under the supervision of well informed and keen professional field guides. Important to note: children under the age of six years old are not permitted on the safari game vehicle.
Facilities at the camp include: Information at the reception area, public telephones, a mini-shop at reception which provides wood and phone cards, but no food such as meat, electrical points for appliances in the rooms, communal boma (braai, barbecue area) in camp, Muzandzeni and Nhlanguleni Picnic areas, and a bird hide in the camp, and individual boma areas for each accommodation unit.

First Time Safari
Mel provided an amazing itinerary and took our feedback and adjusted accordingly. She was very helpful and would strongly recommend her to anyone new to the process.

It was a great experience dealing with Shann. She was most accommodating and patient. We managed to sort things out very eventually. The only sore point I have is the 2 % surcharge for the card handling fee, which I find too excessive. Otherwise, I am pleased with everything.

Keith went above and beyond…
Keith went above and beyond expectations arranging our holiday safari travels (for one vegan and one mobility-impaired traveller, no less:-). Safari.com is lucky to have Keith on board. He helped us feel confident in our choices, keeping us up to date with options, and finessing holiday scheduling issues with aplomb.

Trip to Kruger at Mdluli Safari Lodge
I loved working with Anja from safari.com. She put together my itinerary within my price range and was very professional, thorough and empathetic. She followed up with me many times to see if I needed anything throughout my trip and even filled out some forms for me when I was having difficulty. When the lodge I stayed at was not being accommodating in the slightest, she quickly contacted the manager and got them to rearrange their services to meet my needs. I would most certainly use safari.com again due to my wonderful experience working with Anja.

Nicole at Safari.com is AMAZING!!!
I would love to share my experience with Nicole. She has worked tirelessly to help me make my dream vacation a reality. I had no idea how to start planning. Nicole suggested the most wonderful South African resorts and safaris. No matter how many changes I threw her way it was always received with a happy, positive attitude. I live in Hawaii and even though we were on a 12 hour time difference she was always available to answer any questions or concerns. Her expertise, knowledge and patience are unmeasurable. I was plagued with numerous payment issues from my bank in Hawaii. Nicole never wavered from being patience and more importantly positive that we could resolve each issue and get my trip booked. Nicole is a huge asset to Safari.com and I will scream it from the mountains to let everyone know what excellent customer service I have received. Nicole is a ROCKSTAR!!! We are so excited for our upcoming adventure of a lifetime!
